i agree whole-heartily!
i am very thankful/grateful for all the great insight & suggestions i have received that have ulitmately allowed me to further grow my appreciation for my favorite band (i never thought that was gonna be possible). not only have i found a new appreciation, but i've also been fortunate to collect a great many 'new' shows that i would have otherwise have considered 'irrelevant'.
particularly in regards to some of the older material. with all the great projects we've done/are doing, i've not only been able to fill the gaps of shows i attended (i now have 97.5% of all shows i was at), but i've gotten a TON of shows that i would have almost never considered.
before i started coming here, i had the mindset that i couldnt enjoy or appreciate shows that i wasnt at. i always felt that that connection i made with the band & music at shows i was at was what always drew me to listen only to them. as it turns out thats not the case.... simply put, there are too many damn good shows out there not to listen to them and enjoy them!
thanks to the server team for not only their time and effort in keeping this site up, but for their financial contributions, as obviously without that there would be no week4paug. also thanks to everyone that comes here to share their time, stories, and suggestions. i am truly astounded by our wonderful little community! keep it up.
mad respect!
